The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Downtown North

Comfort Meets Convenience Near San Antonio’s Music Scene

Modern and budget-friendly, Best Western Plus Downtown North sits just north of downtown San Antonio in the East San Antonio district. This laid-back 3-star hotel offers easy access to top venues, air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TVs, and a relaxing outdoor pool. Whether you're in town for a show at the Alamodome or catching your favorite band nearby, this hotel keeps you close to the action without breaking the bank.

Why Concert-goers love it

Best Western Plus Downtown North is just a short drive—under 3 miles—from major venues like The Alamo and the Alamodome, making it a convenient base for concert nights. With a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi, it’s easy to plan your night out or recover the next morning. Soundproofed rooms help keep the after-show buzz outside, while flexible check-in at 3:00 PM and a reasonable checkout time of 11:00 AM offer enough wiggle room for late risers.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable, easy launch point to San Antonio’s music scene
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples enjoying a weekend escape with a show
  • Fans who need a quieter spot to wind down post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a buffet breakfast—perfect after a late night—and while there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, you’ll find several local dining spots within a short drive or ride-share. Late-night snacks can be stored in the in-room fridge, and nearby eateries offer everything from tacos to burgers until the early hours.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or have a bar, its location puts you close to downtown San Antonio’s vibrant nightlife. Local bars, lounges, and music venues are just minutes away, and ride-share options are plentiful. It’s easy to catch an encore elsewhere before calling it a night.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s clean rooms, friendly staff, and great value. Many reviewers point out the easy access to downtown and the quiet stay even though it's near major roads. Travelers often mention the free parking and how refreshing the outdoor pool is after a long day.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that while the location is convenient for driving, it’s not ideal for walking to venues—so plan on ride-shares or having a car. Others mention that while the decor is simple, the rooms are clean and functional.

The Bottom Line

Best Western Plus Downtown North is a smart, affordable choice for concert-goers who want a clean, quiet place to crash without straying far from San Antonio’s top venues.

Good location

Liked: The location was good. 5 mins to the Alamo and River walk. Good air conditioner and quiet place. Nice waffle makers!
Disliked: The closet door was not working, the maintenance came to fix it. Breakfast was ok, from 6:30 to 9:30, so if you are a sleeper, you're gonna miss the breakfast! And they actually turn off the lights around 9:30.

Nice place, but suites are...

Liked: The location and the staff were great.
Disliked: Our king suite was not as advertised. There was no sleeper sofa. We inquired about it. We were told the picture online needs changed as suites only have a chair. We wanted a partial refund but was told it wasn't available since we technically had a suite. This made the room way overpriced.
